Reinkemeier Wins Sunday Million

German poker pro Tobias "PokerNoob999" Reinkemeier won the last PokerStars Sunday Million before the World Series of Poker begins. Reinkemeier defeated "The__Anfied" heads-up after arranging a chip chip before play was concluded. Reinkemeier won $135,053.32 for the victory while "The__Anfied" took home $129,319 for second.

Reinkemeier builds on his recent momentum in the recently concluded EPT circuit where the German regularly threatens. He will be playing at the World Series of Poker over the next six weeks looking to capitalize on his recent success. His last score of this size was at the November 2010 Partouche Poker Tour main event where he got 8th for $154,711.

The Sunday Million had a rare overlay of $33k, but not totally surprising in the new U.S. player-less environment that PokerStars faces.
